This article contains spoilers for The Bear season 2.

The Bear left us with a lot of questions after the sophomore season’s finale. Namely, is Claire OK? Matter of fact, is Sydney OK? How does Carmy seemingly not have hypothermia? Is Richie on the brink of an existential crisis? When will Marcus get a chance to return those missed calls? We could go on.

Season 2 of The Bear saw Carmy (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) and the gang end the ten-episode series with their first night of service at the newly relaunched Chicago restaurant, and it would be an understatement to say that things could have gone better.

Between Sydney having traumatic flashbacks, Carmy locking himself in the walk-in fridge and Claire (Molly Gordon) overhearing an incensed Carmy ranting about how he was wrong to think it possible to balance the restaurant and a relationship, by the end of the season we were well and truly past boiling point and then some.

Through various other frenzied moments along the way, if the first season was about processing trauma and coming to terms with loss, then this was certainly about what happens next. Serving up deeply human and emotive moments amidst pure chaos, The Bear season 2 left us wanting more, and thankfully, that’s exactly what we’ll be getting.

Intense as it was, The Bear was a favourite amongst fans and was critically acclaimed, with its success being cemented at the 2024 Golden Globes, where it won Best Television Series (musical or comedy), with Ayo Edebiri and Jeremy Allen White winning Best Actress and Best Actor. The team then went on to win four awards at the Critics Choice Awards, as well as being nominated for an eye-watering 13 Emmys, of which they ended up taking home six.

The Bear season 3 release date

The Bear will return for its third outing on 27 June 2024. What’s more, it’s been confirmed that we will be getting a fourth season, which will be (or has been) filmed straight after the third season. We don’t know when season 4 will drop yet.

In November 2023, the announcement was made that we’d be getting a third season of The Bear.

A press statement from the President of FX Entertainment said: “We’re so proud to partner with Christopher Storer, Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, and the rest of the creative team, as well as the brilliant cast led by Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. What they and the crew have done is truly remarkable, and we and our partners at Hulu and Disney+ join fans in looking forward to the next chapter in the story of The Bear.”

The Bear season 3 cast

From the press release on the show’s renewal, we’re feeling confident that we can expect Carmy’s core crew to be back on board for The Bear season 3, which would likely look something like:

  • Jeremy Allen White as Carmy Berzatto
  • Ayo Edebiri as Sydney Adamu
  • Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Richie Jerimovich
  • Abby Elliott as Natalie “Sugar” Berzatto
  • Lionel Boyce as Marcus
  • Liza Colón-Zayas as Tina

It’s expected that Molly Gordon (who plays Carmy’s girlfriend Claire) will also make a return, particularly given that there are a lot of loose ends from season 2 to tie up. In an interview White said “I think she deserves an apology at the very least. So I hope there’s some version of that when I read scripts again.”

The second season of The Bear saw a long list of celebrity cameos, from Sarah Paulson to Olivia Colman to Jamie Lee Curtis to Will Poulter. Honestly, the list goes on. So if the last season is anything to go by, then The Bear season 3 will be packed full of star power.

The Bear season 3 plot speculation

While we currently have very little information about The Bear season 3 plotline, White recently told Variety that the third season would be more similar to season 1 in that it would go back to the basics to focus on the kitchen environment.

“We all did a lot of preparation before the first season,” he said. “I went to culinary school and I spent a lot of time in restaurants and stuff. And then, for the second season, so much of it was about putting the restaurant together, so there wasn’t that much cooking. But now, in the third season, I think we’re going to go back to that functioning kitchen atmosphere that we had in the first.”

Excitingly, Ayo Edebiri is also expected to be helping out behind the camera, with showrunner Christopher Storer telling Esquire: “It was also great having Ayo [Edebiri] on set with me that week — she’s going to direct a few episodes next year so she was an important set of fresh eyes.”

A certain amount of rumours have circled about the possibility of a funeral scene, after the cast were photographed during filming back in March outside a Chicago church. So, who dies?

White has also spoken about his hopes for his on-screen girlfriend, Clare (Molly Gordon) to get an apology at least for what’s passed. “As Jeremy, a reader of scripts and watcher of [the] show, I think she deserves an apology at the very least,” he said in an interview with Deadline. “So I hope there’s some version of that when I read scripts again.”

We cannot wait!
